You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
Ask whether assignment is available for your policy and location, what fees apply, and what you must pay upfront. MedaSynq does not arrange assignments.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
Know Your Rights
Under the FTC Funeral Rule, funeral homes must give price information by telephone and a written General Price List when you visit in person. Federal law does not require them to send the list by mail or email. You can select individual goods and services and use a casket purchased elsewhere.

“If you’re looking for compassion and care in the handling of your loved ones final resting, love elsewhere. The most unprofessional, unempathetic,disingenuous bunch of LIARS this side of the Mississippi. My grandmother was to be laid to rest in Iuka yesterday at 10AM. We were to be present for burial. Morrison put her in the ground at 9:40AM with NO ONE present. When we arrived at 10, the Morrison representative was EXTREMELY unapologetic and said, “I’m sorry but what we discussed and what was is writing were two different things.” Yes, that’s a direct quote. Along with, “what do you want us to do about it now? Whether she was in the ground at 9:40 or 10:00 what difference does it make?” He then proceeded to LAUGH at us with the grounds keeper (who did not return his sentiments) and when the pastor arrived, he BOASTED of his treachery and our reaction. What arrogance. So if you want a funeral home who cares, listens, honors agreements, has decorum, class, and operates honestly, Morrison is NOT the funeral home for you!”
